over the cap

Please read the comments on the trade!
"3rd team retains $2,125,000 for EDM 2025 3rd."
That means EDM would be under the cap by $308,333
I can't account for the $1,816,667 over the cap because CapFriendly doesn't allow 3-way trades in AGM.

im illiterate

Tampa has said multiple times no matter what Stamkos won't be traded

Until he's re-signed that literally means nothing!

"STAMKOS IS COMPLETELY HYPOTHETICAL AND VERY UNLIKELY! Let's get that out of the way right now."
You must've missed that part too. Maybe I should make it bigger.

Flames fans obsessing about Oilers AGM posts is hilarious btw

not what the flyers want for those players, we have a ton of winger prospects with Brink, Foerster we already have a problem of too many D-men so I think taking one back is redundant, it will 100% be for picks unless flyers management really likes Holloway, in any case I doubt Kulak would be something the flyers want, they'd probably just rather keep Seeler

tampa declines

Ignoring the Stamkos part.

Holloway won’t be moved. He’s literally popping right now. Hes looked great back from injury, he’s looked great right before injury, he should have 1G 1A in 2GP if not for Brown shooting into the goalie on an empty net set up by Holloway. Holloway at his cap hit is an immense add for the Oilers going into the playoffs. He’s untouchable.

Kulak also should not be moved. He’s a beast in the playoffs. When Nurse was suspended in the playoffs, it was Kulak who stepped up and took on his minutes. No way the Oilers move on from a home town product that brings it in the most important games.

So no to Seeler.

Walker though is an okay upgrade on Ceci. Walker can be had for like a 2nd + 4th. So yes to Walker, no to Seeler.

Holloway also plays center which is attractive.
Kulak would be a fine addition and very likely outplays other LD options. PHI flipping him is also an attractive option.
This deal is fair.

Steven Stamkos prior to the start of the season after the "I'm disy" comment Stamkos"I can't say what will happen after my contract expires however, I can guarantee I will be here until then."
But Being TB has had the best winning percentage since 12/1 won't miss the playoffs.

Holloway is improving but EDM needs scoring depth for the playoffs. As much as Holloway is expected to help in the future, decisions need to be made about winning a Stanley Cup!
Kulak's cap hit makes him replaceable. You can gush over these guys all you want but the fact is the PHI trade would be an upgrade for the Oilers! Seeler would be fighting for ice time with Desharnais as Walker can play both sides! Ceci has been on fire with Nurse while playing top line mins and you want to keep Kulak over him?... Get some sleep, you're trippin

Stranger things have happened... Quit acting like it's not a possibility, even if it's not probable. I clearly said in the comments "STAMKOS IS COMPLETELY HYPOTHETICAL AND VERY UNLIKELY! Let's get that out of the way right now"... Read before you comment like this

TB has had the best winning percentage since 12/1 they're not missing the playoffs.

"STAMKOS IS COMPLETELY HYPOTHETICAL AND VERY UNLIKELY! Let's get that out of the way right now"
Reading is hard

AGAIN...
"STAMKOS IS COMPLETELY HYPOTHETICAL AND VERY UNLIKELY! Let's get that out of the way right now"

I said tampa declines, meaning they dont accept that deal lol, reading must be hard for you

Your hypothetical has about the same chance of happening as I have of winning the Powerball tonight.

You mean to tell me someone named "boltsfan71" overvalues their player? Kane is a pretty comparable player but w.e

prior to a week ago I would have agreed that stamkos being moved would be unlikely but possible but last week JBB gave his presser and said that even if tampa miss the playoffs they arent trading stamkos so I think its pretty safe to say he is staying

You should look up what hypothetical means. It's not that serious but here you are.

kane only got the return he did because he would only go to NYR though, giroux is a better comparable

As I've already said... HYPOTHETICAL AND UNLIKELY.
Until a contract is signed with a NMC it could happen!

Stamkos has a full NMC... He would choose the destination just like Kane did! Plus Giroux is 2M cheaper
